The 70F dew contour?

I'm only at 615ft.

It's another world down there in the tropics of SE NH. You make me feel like I'm in Coos sometimes.

Not really. It's like this almost every year...even in 07-08 when we had 2ft going into April.

Goes to show how important deep pack is. My 4" depth is 33F and 8" depth 34F.

He’ll be back in time for growing season

My criteria is a blend of my old winter weenie ways and what’s good for my birds and plants. So basically not too cold, a decent pack to insulate the ground, and then maybe a 2 week stretch of deeper winter with a good storm in there. So you can check all of those boxes off. I would probably have preferred a little less QPF this winter, but you can’t have it all. I don’t like the big cold anymore, but I used to weenie out over it so if it’s going to be brutal at least make the airmass record breaking. So another check mark there. Yeah it has sucked a bit south of here, but I’ve seriously been enjoying it up here. The snow banks are still really damn high as of this morning. It’s a deep winter look.

I’d have to rate this winter an A+ so far. 2 11”+ events, a deep pack the past couple of weeks, a warm and snowy January, and a brief record cold airmass to start Feb.

21° here and 34° for Gene. This should mix out quickly this morning.

Sun is finally out. 34.5

24°

Limping

A slow, agonizing crawl to 16°. Southerly winds please.

11° Finally getting a peek of sun. Mix this crap out please.

I like getting my sleep and waking up to actual snow.

Red is the analysis temp by MADIS of what was expected for MPV the last 36 hours. They’re running solidly 5-10° warm there. I see no reason why they should stray so far from their analysis temp given their geography and the strong CAA/mixing we had.

Your tax dollar at work

-0.5/21 at 1pm Not too bad out there with slightly diminishing winds and full sun.

Looks like shoddy obs overall back then. With -7C temps we toss.

They’re still separate sensors IIRC.

Those -37s look fraudulent

Christmas 1980 really flies under the radar with the cheap midnight high. 18° at 5z for CON, 0° at 8z, and -15° at 12z. Then eating dinner at 2pm with an afternoon high of -8°. Then it briefly went calm the following night and they reported -25° although for some reason the ob looks discounted and -19° went in the books.

Lowest BOS dews in our lifetimes. Toss that random -36.

There was something about this that gave it more bite though. The low dews and wind made any exposed skin feel like it was starting to freeze instantly. I’ve had snotcicles many times before, but I was getting them last night before I even started breathing in. Shorter period of record for FIT, but this almost ran the 24hr record low dew gamut.
